Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 5/6 = -9/12

We need to get a common denominator of 12

1/12 - 5/6*2/2 = -9 /12

1/12 - 10/12 = -9/12

Since the denominators are the same, we can subtract the numerators

1-10 = -9

-9/12 = - 9/12

We can simplify -9/12 by dividing the top and bottom by 3

-9/3 = -3

12 /3 = 4

-9/12 = -3/4

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 - 5/6 = -9/12

1st, we need to identify the Least Common Multiplier of 12 and 6

in this case, the LCM is 12

for 5/6 = (5*2) / (6*2) = 10/12

2nd, adjust the fractions based on the LCM

= 1 / 12  -  10 / 12

= 1 - 10 / 12

= -9 / 12 ---- simplify   -3 / 4

PLEASE HELP!!! here are two different strategies to find the new price of a hat after a discount of 40%. The hat was originally
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: Calculate 40% discount on original price, then subtract discount from original price.

Amount of discount = 40% of $30

= 0.40 × $30

= $12

New price = $30 - $12 = $18

Method 2:

New price = (100% - discount percentage) of original price

= 60% of original price

= 0.60 × $30

= $18

X^2 + 5x - 24 = 0 How do I solve by factoring
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

x² + 5x − 24 = 0

(x + 8) (x − 3) = 0

x = -8 or 3
